Making memories

Have you ever sat and thought about the memories and impact you have left on those around you?  I often do.  The trouble is I tend to dwell on the negative impact I may have made.  The yelling, the depression, the frustration, etc.  The positives are so much easier to cover up.  As a parent, I think we need to have a reality check sometimes and realize that we are so much more than the bumps we have encountered.  Recently, I have been organizing photos.....I know such a dreary thing for me to do  :-)  Well, although in the forefront of your head you may only remember some of the bad times.  There are soo many positive things that way outweigh them that we need to take pride in them.  I think, as humans, we tend to believe that we are the product of our past failures.  The truth is that these are all just learning experiences we should appreciate.  So, below are some photos of some of the smiles through the years.  So, sit back, enjoy the positive pictures!

LOL It is easy to find the negative in life and if you look at these pictures there is no way you could ever think of a negative.

Loved them,

Bad thoughts seem to pile on in a way that makes you forget the good. I was a part of some of these pictures and may I just say GOOD times!!!!! You have a way of capturing something beautiful with your pictures. Nice reminder to take them out ever so often and remember the moments.

Love you!
